Instead of going on a rant like I would love to do I'll just ask this simple question.

Why are we paying taxes and what are our taxes really going towards ?

The reason I ask is because, the education,and judicial are the biggest jokes.

I know we pay taxes in the store which is bull because the items we purchase from the store that we get taxed on are over priced and cheaply made.

Health care in America isn't free. I I know taxes can't be going towards that. Plus Doctors don't know what's wrong with you half the time and they charge an arm and a leg for whatever it is you go to see them for...


People who get locked up have to pay for being locked up...no seriously, if you get locked up you gotta pay them just as if they were a hotel....a really shytty hotel at that. So I know the money isn't going that way.


I know good and damn well my tax money isn't being put into the education system because 98.5% of the people I encounter on the daily basis are so stupid it's scary.

at this point I'd rather just point out that your taxes could be filed much easier and faster if the government did it for you.

But HR Block and Intuit (Turbo Tax) lobby Congress against it.
So if youre using these two companies, you're part of the problem.

not a good enough answer because those b*stards turn on you when you need them the most.

it isn't and trust me I despise paying taxes as much as you do because I personally don't make use of most of the services they claim it's for..

Unfortunately we can't avoid it with a salaried job.

The only way to avoid it is by becoming self employed and getting a clever accountant to minimize how much you earn....
